Poll: Do you get what you pay for? Or are expensive things overpriced?
This poll is closed.
The cheaper, the better. Price is just a number.

You get what you pay for. The price of something is representative of how well-made it is.

In between. Price matters to a point, after that cutoff point it's just about status/novelty.

You get what you pay for...?
#6
RE: You get what you pay for...?
Yeah I would say option 3. Everything has a price. I tend to buy things based on reviews rather than looks or other aesthetics. Sometimes I'll treat myself to something I 'want' regardless of price (to a point), though. Working for a big corporation it is fascinating to see how we market our products though, and how we tailor them for specific segments and demographics in the market.

An example would be earphones. I've never bought into the super expensive headsets. I've had a pair of Sennheiser's which were not expensive but not cheap, and they've lasted me years. I also have never bought into the wireless earphone thing either. I'm not a sound expert but even I can notice a drop in quality of the output, and for £250+ for the cheapest pair, it's daylight robbery.
